The present disclosure relates to the field of information technologies, and in particular, to a short message service (SMS) message processing method and apparatus, and an electronic device.

BACKGROUND

In modern life, as popularity of mobile terminals increases, a growing quantity of users exchange information by using the mobile terminals. By virtue of quickness, convenience, and the like, an SMS message is gradually favored by users. However, many criminals use SMS messages to send a large amount of junk information such as advertisements and false information to the user. Because the junk information brings a great deal of trouble to user's life, how to process the SMS message to build a good communication environment becomes an urgent problem to be solved.

Currently, during SMS message processing, received SMS messages are filtered based on an installed junk SMS message interception application. When a received SMS message is determined as a junk SMS message, the junk SMS message is stored in a junk SMS message storage area.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present disclosure clearer, the following further describes the embodiments of the present disclosure in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

With development of information technologies, information security has become the user's upmost concern currently. Although some junk SMS messages may be intercepted by using a junk SMS message interception application installed on a mobile terminal, there are still some SMS messages sent to the mobile terminal of the user in all sorts of ways. These junk SMS messages are stored in the mobile terminal, or stored in a conventional SMS message storage area together with an SMS message sent by a close friend of the user, or stored in a junk SMS message storage area alone. Because these junk SMS messages occupy a memory of the mobile terminal, performance of the mobile terminal is degraded, and when the user expects to clean up these junk SMS messages, a cleanup process is cumbersome. Therefore, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides an SMS message processing method. According to the method, different SMS messages are processed in different processing manners such that not only a good communication environment is built for the user, but also the performance of the mobile terminal is greatly improved.

The second processing manner is mainly for processing of SMS messages in which the user shows relatively great interest. These SMS messages are usually advertisement information, service information, and the like, and the second processing manner is used to instruct the mobile terminal to save a received SMS message in a conventional SMS message storage area and provide an information processing dialog box when a view operation on the received SMS message is detected, where multiple options such as a delete option and a save option are displayed in the information processing dialog box.

The third processing manner is mainly for processing of an SMS message sent by a colleague, a friend, or the like of the user, and the third processing manner is used to instruct the mobile terminal to save a received SMS message in the conventional SMS message storage area.

The fourth processing manner is mainly for processing of an SMS message sent by a relative or the like of the user, and the fourth processing manner is used to instruct the mobile terminal to save a received SMS message in a confidential SMS message storage area.

In addition, a corresponding processing manner may be preset for each identification information group in order to facilitate processing of a received SMS message in subsequent steps. The first processing manner is corresponding to a first number group and/or a first keyword group, the second processing manner is corresponding to a second number group and/or a second keyword group, the third processing manner is corresponding to a third number group and/or a third keyword group, and the fourth processing manner is corresponding to a fourth number group and/or a fourth keyword group.

104. Process the SMS message according to the determined processing manner.

In this embodiment, corresponding processing may be performed on the received SMS message based on the determined processing manner.

According to the method provided in this embodiment of the present disclosure, when the SMS message is received, the identification information of the SMS message is extracted such that SMS messages that have different identification information are processed in different processing manners, thereby optimizing an SMS message processing manner, preventing a junk SMS message from occupying storage space, and improving performance of the mobile terminal.

In another embodiment of the present disclosure, before the determining a processing manner corresponding to the identification information from a prestored correspondence between an identification information group and a processing manner according to the identification information, the method further includes providing an SMS message setting page, where multiple processing manners are displayed on the SMS message setting page; setting, according to a setting operation in the SMS message setting interface, a processing manner corresponding to each piece of identification information; grouping identification information corresponding to a same processing manner based on the processing manner corresponding to each piece of identification information, to form an identification information group; and storing the correspondence between an identification information group and a processing manner.

In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the processing the SMS message according to the determined processing manner includes if the determined processing manner is the first processing manner, deleting the SMS message or saving the SMS message in the junk SMS message storage area according to the first processing manner; if the determined processing manner is the second processing manner, according to the second processing manner, saving the SMS message in the conventional SMS message storage area, and when a view operation on the SMS message is detected, providing the information processing dialog box, and processing the SMS message according to a selected operation in the information processing dialog box; if the determined processing manner is the third processing manner, saving the SMS message in the conventional SMS message storage area according to the third processing manner; or if the determined processing manner is the fourth processing manner, saving the SMS message in the confidential SMS message storage area according to the fourth processing manner.

In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the processing the SMS message according to a selected operation in the information processing dialog box includes if it is detected that the delete option in the information processing dialog box is selected, deleting the SMS message or saving the SMS message in the junk SMS message storage area; or if it is detected that the save option in the information processing dialog box is selected, saving the SMS message, and when a view operation on the SMS message is detected subsequently, skipping providing the information processing dialog box again.

All the foregoing optional technical solutions may be combined in any manner to form an optional embodiment of the present disclosure, and details are not described herein.

An embodiment of the present disclosure provides an SMS message processing method with reference to the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 . That a mobile terminal that has an SMS message receiving/transmitting function such as a mobile phone performs the method is used as an example. Referring to FIG. 2 , a procedure of the method provided in this embodiment of the present disclosure includes the following steps.

201. A mobile terminal presets and stores a correspondence between an identification information group and a processing manner.

In this embodiment, to perform classified processing on SMS messages that have different identification information, the mobile terminal has different storage areas, and the different storage areas may be classified into a junk SMS message storage area, a conventional SMS message storage area, a confidential SMS message storage area, and the like. Specific positions of the junk SMS message storage area, the conventional SMS message storage area, and the confidential SMS message storage area in the mobile terminal are not limited in this embodiment, provided that the junk SMS message storage area, the conventional SMS message storage area, and the confidential SMS message storage area can be distinguished.

According to the method provided in this embodiment, the correspondence between an identification information group and a processing manner may be set based on an important role of the identification information in order to process a received SMS message pertinently such that an important SMS message of a user can be effectively prevented from being deleted while quickly cleaning up a junk SMS message.

When setting the correspondence between an identification information group and a processing manner, the mobile terminal may provide an SMS message setting page. Multiple processing manners are displayed on the SMS message setting page. The user sets, in the SMS message setting interface, a corresponding processing manner for each piece of identification information according to a requirement of the user, and the mobile terminal sets, by detecting a setting operation of the user on the setting page, the processing manner corresponding to each piece of identification information. Generally, each processing manner is corresponding to multiple pieces of identification information. Therefore, for ease of management, the mobile terminal groups identification information corresponding to a same processing manner based on the processing manner corresponding to each piece of identification information, to form an identification information group. In this case, there is also a correspondence between an identification information group and a processing manner.

It should be noted that for different content of identification information, a manner in which the mobile terminal sets the correspondence between an identification information group and a processing manner is also different. When identification information is information about a number used to send an SMS message, the mobile terminal may recommend number information stored in the mobile terminal to the user, and the user sets, on the SMS message setting page, a corresponding processing manner for each piece of recommended number information. The number information stored in the mobile terminal may be contact number information stored in an address book, may be contact number information in a history communication record, or the like. When the identification information is a content keyword included in an SMS message, the mobile terminal may extract a content keyword from an SMS message stored in the mobile terminal, and recommend the extracted content keyword to the user, and the user may further define a content keyword according to an information receiving requirement of the user, and then set, on the SMS message prompt page, corresponding processing manners for the recommended content keyword and the defined content keyword. When the identification information is information about a number used to send an SMS message and a content keyword, the mobile terminal recommends, to the user, number information stored in the mobile terminal and a content keyword extracted from a stored SMS message, and the user may further define a content keyword according to an information receiving requirement of the user, and then set, on the SMS message setting page, corresponding processing manners for the recommended number information, the recommended content keyword, and the defined content keyword.

It should be noted that the correspondence between an identification information group and a processing manner is set by the user according to a requirement of the user in the foregoing. However, in some approaches, the mobile terminal may further perform setting recommendation for the user. For example, the mobile terminal prompts the user to set SMS messages corresponding to specific pieces of number information to SMS messages that need to be stored, to set SMS messages corresponding to specific numbers to SMS messages that need to be deleted, or the like; or prompts the user to set SMS messages that include specific content keywords to SMS messages that need to be stored, to set SMS messages that include specific content keywords to SMS messages that need to be deleted, or the like.

After the setting operation, the following correspondence exists between a processing manner and an identification information group.

A first processing manner is corresponding to a first identification information group. The first identification information group may be a first number group, a first keyword group, or a first number group and a first keyword group. That is, the first processing manner may be corresponding to the first number group, the first processing manner may be corresponding to the first keyword group, or the first processing manner may be corresponding to the first number group and the first keyword group.

A second processing manner is corresponding to a second identification information group. The second identification information group may be a second number group, a second keyword group, or a second number group and a second keyword group. That is, the second processing manner may be corresponding to the second number group, the second processing manner may be corresponding to the second keyword group, or the second processing manner may be corresponding to the second number group and the second keyword group.

A third processing manner is corresponding to a third identification information group. The third identification information group may be a third number group, a third keyword group, or a third number group and a third keyword group. That is, the third processing manner may be corresponding to the third number group, the third processing manner may be corresponding to the third keyword group, or the third processing manner may be corresponding to the third number group and the third keyword group.

A fourth processing manner is corresponding to a fourth identification information group. The fourth identification information group may be a fourth number group, a fourth keyword group, or a fourth number group and a fourth keyword group. That is, the fourth processing manner may be corresponding to the fourth number group, the fourth processing manner may be corresponding to the fourth keyword group, or the fourth processing manner may be corresponding to the fourth number group and the fourth keyword group.

In the method provided in this embodiment, the specified correspondence between an identification information group and a processing manner is further stored after the correspondence between an identification information group and a processing manner is preset in order to facilitate subsequent application. During storage, the preset correspondence between identification information and a processing manner may be stored in a local storage unit, such as a memory or a flash memory. Certainly, another storage manner may be used, and is not described herein.

It should be noted that there is no need to preset the correspondence between an identification information group and a processing manner each time the SMS message processing method is implemented. The correspondence between an identification information group and a processing manner may be preset when the SMS message processing method is first implemented, and the specified correspondence between an identification information group and a processing manner may be directly used when the SMS message processing method is implemented subsequently. Certainly, when a preset identification information group and processing manner need to be updated, for example, when an operation such as addition, deletion, or changing is performed on identification information in the identification information group corresponding to the preset processing manner, the step of setting the correspondence between an identification information group and a processing manner may be performed again, and a quantity of times of performing the step is not limited in this embodiment.

202. The mobile terminal receives a new SMS message.

In the communications field, when a first mobile terminal needs to establish a session with a second mobile terminal by using an SMS message, the first mobile terminal sends a packet that carries number information to a server, and after receiving the packet that carries the number information and that is sent by the first mobile terminal, the server sends, to the second mobile terminal, the packet that carries the number information and that is sent by the first mobile terminal, to enable the first mobile terminal to establish the session with the second mobile terminal. The packet is a new SMS message received by the second mobile terminal. The first mobile terminal is a sender of the SMS message, and the second mobile terminal is a recipient of the SMS message, that is, the mobile terminal that performs the SMS message processing method in this embodiment.

203. The mobile terminal extracts identification information of the SMS message.

Because the SMS message processing manner provided in this embodiment is mainly for processing of a received new SMS message, each time a new SMS message is received, the mobile terminal may directly extract identification information of the new SMS message, and then process the new SMS message according to the extracted identification information in order to avoid missing any SMS message that needs to be processed. However, if there is a large quantity of received new SMS messages, and a processor unit of the mobile terminal has no sufficient resources to process each received new SMS message, the mobile terminal may save the received new SMS message in a temporary storage medium such as a cache; and when the processor unit of the mobile terminal has sufficient resources to process the received new SMS message, the mobile terminal may read the new SMS message from the temporary storage medium, extract identification information from the new SMS message, and then process the new SMS message according to the extracted identification information.

Because the SMS message received by the mobile terminal is usually a compressed package of the SMS message, and coding data with a specific format may be obtained after the compressed package of the SMS message is decoded, the mobile terminal may extract, according to the decoded data from data that indicates a number used to send the SMS message, the number used to send the SMS message, and filter, by using a content keyword included in the preset identification information group as a filtering condition, data that indicates content of the SMS message. If the data that indicates the content of the SMS message includes the content keyword in the identification information group, the mobile terminal extracts the content keyword from the data that indicates the content of the SMS message; or if the data that indicates the content of the SMS message does not include the content keyword in the identification information, the mobile terminal does not extract any information from the data that indicates the content of the SMS message.

204. The mobile terminal determines a processing manner corresponding to the identification information from the prestored correspondence between an identification information group and a processing manner according to the identification information.

After extracting the identification information from the received new SMS message, the mobile terminal may determine, based on the prestored correspondence between identification information and a processing manner, the processing manner corresponding to the identification information.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the identification information extracted from the SMS message is first identification information, that is, the number used to send the SMS message belongs to the first number group, or the SMS message includes a content keyword in the first keyword group, or the number used to send the SMS message belongs to the first number group and the SMS message includes a content keyword in the first keyword group, the processing manner for the SMS message may be determined as the first processing manner.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the identification information extracted from the SMS message is second identification information, that is, the number used to send the SMS message belongs to the second number group, or the SMS message includes a content keyword in the second keyword group, or the number used to send the SMS message belongs to the second number group and the SMS message includes a content keyword in the second keyword group, the processing manner for the SMS message may be determined as the second processing manner.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the identification information extracted from the SMS message is third identification information, that is, the number used to send the SMS message belongs to the third number group, or the SMS message includes a content keyword in the third keyword group, or the number used to send the SMS message belongs to the third number group and the SMS message includes a content keyword in the third keyword group, the processing manner for the SMS message may be determined as the third processing manner.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the identification information extracted from the SMS message is fourth identification information, that is, the number used to send the SMS message belongs to the fourth number group, or the SMS message includes a content keyword in the fourth keyword group, or the number used to send the SMS message belongs to the fourth number group and the SMS message includes a content keyword in the fourth keyword group, the processing manner for the SMS message may be determined as the fourth processing manner.

It should be noted that during determining of the processing manner corresponding to the identification information, any one of the three manners of matching by using a number used to send the SMS message, a content keyword, and the number used to send the SMS message and the content keyword is used as an example for description. However, in some approaches, because matching by using the number used to send the SMS message is faster, the number information extracted from the SMS message may be first matched with number information corresponding to each processing manner during determining of the processing manner corresponding to the identification information according to the extracted identification information. When the extracted number information belongs to number information corresponding to any processing manner, the processing manner is determined as the processing manner for the SMS message; or when the extracted number information does not belong to number information corresponding to any processing manner, the content keyword extracted from the SMS message is matched with a content keyword corresponding to each processing manner, and when the content keyword extracted from the SMS message belongs to a content keyword corresponding to any processing manner, the processing manner is determined as the processing manner for the SMS message.

205. The mobile terminal processes the SMS message according to the determined processing manner.

That the mobile terminal processes the SMS message based on the determined processing manner includes but is not limited to the following cases.

First case, the determined processing manner is the first processing manner.

When the processing manner is the first processing manner, it indicates that the received SMS message is an SMS message in which the user shows no interest. The mobile terminal may directly delete the SMS message in order to prevent the SMS message from occupying storage space of the mobile terminal. Certainly, the mobile terminal may save the SMS message in the junk SMS message storage area in order to facilitate subsequent viewing by the user.

Second case, the determined processing manner is the second processing manner.

When the determined processing manner is the second processing manner, it indicates that the received SMS message is an SMS message in which the user shows relatively great interest.
